I just finished reading I'd Tell You I'd Love You, But Then I'd Have to Kill You, the 1st book in a series by Ally Carter. It's a really girly book about a girl and her problems at school. But this is not just another school - it's the Gallagher Academy for Exceptional Young Woman. To the surrounding citizens of Roseville, it's just a school for rich delinquents. But only those who learn and work there know it's actually a school for spies. Yes, you heard me correctly. Instead of normally history and math classes, they have Covert Operations and Countries of the World classes.

Cammie 'The Chameleon' is a sophomore at the Academy, and the headmistress is her mother. After she meets a cute guy named Josh at a surprise spy mission in Covert Operations, she decides that she must see him again. She sneaks out several times using many different secret corridors and super-sneaky abilities to meet him. Josh and Cammie become close - almost too close, considering Cammie is a spy. All she tells him is lies about her life, and he believes her.

But when Josh discovers her secrets after another spy mission, and she finds out that her mom and the Covert Operations teacher already knew about her relationship with Josh, she's worried about what the outcome and punishment will be. Will they erase Josh's memory of all this? Will she never see Josh again? You'll just have to read it to find out.
